it wont show anything to do with asthma it will look at your heart i think. your problems sound similar to me and i have very mild asthma.if your doc tests for asthma you will be asked to do a peak flow chart for a number of weeks and they will measure any dips that happen.
An ECG { echo cardio gram } is to check out your Heart, not for the Asthma, you need different tests for that.
